The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost to the Kansas City Chiefs earlier this season at Raymond James Stadium while wearing dark jerseys. For the Super Bowl, they're switching it up.
According to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio, the Bucs will wear their white jerseys in Super Bowl LV. They reportedly went with white because Tom Brady is 4-1 in Super Bowls while wearing the color.
Brady's only loss while wearing white came in Super Bowl LII against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Buccaneers are the seventh home team to choose to wear white in the Super Bowl.
The Chiefs will wear red, although they'll probably be fine with it. Per Florio, Kansas City is 2-0 in the big game when it sports red jerseys. When wearing white, K.C. is 0-1.
The Buccaneers host the Chiefs at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay on Feb. 7. If the Buccaneers win, it'll be their first Super Bowl title since 2003. If the Chiefs win, they'll become the first team to win back-to-back championships since the New England Patriots in 2004 and 2005 — Super Bowls XXXVIII and XXXIX.
